Went into the fray of @funansg to check out the sneak peek into @live.lyf.here. Coliving is like staying in a nice hotel/apartment with your own room and ensuite but you also get to enjoy the community vibe a hostel brings. Win-win!
.

There will be co-working spaces, communal kitchen to learn different cuisines and dishes from one another, a fun laundry area with games and a beer vending machine for while you wait. That would definitely encourage more clean clothes!😂
.

They also pride themselves on partnerships with local brands, artists, musicians, designers and chefs to make sure there will be 3-4 activities every week!

Light up 2018 by learning new skills at lyf@SMU this month! ✨ Join us for enriching workshops organised by #Ascott in partnership with @ga_singapore & @peatix as we bring together technology industry experts & professionals to share their experiences & insights on trending topics such as event growth hacking & user experience design.

Eternally entrepreneurial and always with an eye on giving new life to undervalued property, Karen Tan's foray into starting The Projector was an abrupt change from her previous career as an investment banker. When her team struggled to bring in a cinema operator to the space, she decided to do it all on her own—a bold move by a savvy business owner—now that's truly living lyf.

Putting a twist on the humble "bao", Singaporean cafe @baomakers bring together unique baos, great coffee and a minimalist and chic interior, in one great package. To share the love, The Bao Makers are offering 1 for 1 Bao's!⠀
Simply follow @live.lyf.here and tag us in a photo of your bao to receive your lower priced bao for free!⠀ ⠀
*Limited to 2 redemptions per table. No splitting of table. Offer is valid till 31 Jan 2018.⠀ ⠀#livelyf#food#igsg#lyfgoeslocal

A documentary filmmaker and video producer, Jeremy Ho’s work has brought him to places like Pakistan, Thailand and China, and has been featured at major film festivals internationally. In 2016, he co-founded Run & Gun Media, a multimedia content company in this social media age. Pushing boundaries in storytelling, R&G works closely with news outlets like Channel News Asia and Yahoo Singapore, and corporate clients like Michelin Guide, directing and producing news features and documentary shorts. Already with a SOPA Award under his belt amongst other plaudits, the team’s work has been so popular, you'll probably have seen some of their work on your social media feeds!

Nazish Zafar has taken her passion for small businesses and start-ups, from school all the way into the real world! Having completed her PhD in Sociology at Johns Hopkins University, Nazish’s research was about the survival and growth of small businesses and start-ups. She eventually launched Shopkeeper Stories, an online photographic project featuring small business owners from an eclectic mix of trades. From fishmongers, florists, and lingerie sellers, the delightful vignettes capture the practical wisdom necessary to running a business. @ShopkeeperStories continues to flourish while Nazish keeps busy with her specialisation in qualitative research, a job that’s taken her to Brazil, Russia, USA, and Singapore! Her work has put human faces to businesses and reminds us that behind every small business is more often than not, family.

The coastline has been an important part of Singapore’s existence, from its existence as a sleepy fishing village, to the maritime hub it is today, and it’s appropriate that photographer @weixianglimsg has been documenting scenes along our coastline since 2012. The pastel-hued images depict serene and surreal images which look like stills from an arthouse film. Having spent five years as a General Paper teacher in a Junior College here, Weixiang is deft across a variety of photography style, with his work taking him from the studio, shipyards and construction sites, football fields, and all across Asia! Weixiang’s empathetic lens and love for Singapore shines true in his work, and reminds us not to forget that beaches aren’t just for tanning—they’re a critical part of our nation’s lifeblood!

A sociologist by training, Darren Soh (@darrensohphoto) is an architectural and landscape photographer whose personal work explores his curiosity about how we live, and the spaces we create and leave behind. Breathing new life into vernacular architecture and nocturnal spaces often deemed insignificant, his work doesn’t just document Singapore—it’s educated Singaporeans about our country’s rich history! Having photographed Singapore’s built landscape for over 25 years, his photographic work is collected by the National Museum in Singapore and numerous corporate and private collectors from around the world.
